Beginning the Year Strong!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Starting the school year on the right note is fundamental for a successful academic year. However, many public school districts do not have the budget to provide schools with enough supplies and materials that help students start the school year in the right mindframe.

By funding this project, you will provide my students with a solid amount of materials that will help them maintain their materials and creativity flowing through the school year.

My students love painting, writing, and mathematics. By receiving folders, watercolors, and a brand new calendar for the classroom, they will be ready to learn and will be able to express their creativity as well.
